ELAC’s Concentro M.2 brings seismic bass extension, explosive dynamics and brilliant, lifelike treble to flagship scale. Its four 10-inch woofers reach deep with commanding ease, while the adjustable VX-JET array tailors dispersion for the room. Best of High End also highlights the sculptural, massively built cabinet—an unapologetically ambitious high-end floorstander.
Pros
Four side-mounted 10-inch woofers deliver exceptionally deep bass and formidable dynamic authority.
JET tweeters provide a brilliant, lifelike and highly resolved high-frequency presentation.
Adjustable VX-JET dispersion allows owners to fine-tune tonal balance and direct-to-reflected sound in the listening room.
The 140 kg monolithic cabinet and billet-aluminium stand indicate exceptionally substantial construction.

What Reviewers Are Saying
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 87/100
The supplied review describes formidable low-frequency reach and dynamic authority, alongside a brilliant, lifelike high end. It provides considerably less direct listening commentary on midrange character and stereo imaging, though the adjustable coaxial array is intended to tailor dispersion and the direct-to-reflected sound balance.
Bass
95/100
Best of High End describes the four side-mounted 10-inch woofers as delivering unprecedented dynamic power and effortless reach into the lowest octaves. That points to exceptionally deep, authoritative bass from this large, purpose-built design.
Mid
76/100
The supplied material identifies ELAC's Crystal Cone drivers and their extended operating range, but offers little direct listening evidence about vocal realism, tonal density, or crossover coherence. Reviewers therefore leave the speaker's midrange character largely undescribed.
Treble
93/100
The JET tweeters are described as providing brilliant and lifelike high-frequency reproduction. This suggests an especially open, detailed top end, although the review does not specifically address how the speaker behaves with bright recordings or at very high playback levels.
Soundstage Imaging
76/100
ELAC's centrally mounted VX-JET array is designed around point-source behavior, and its adjustable position can alter dispersion and the balance of direct and diffuse sound. The supplied review does not provide a direct account of stage width, depth, image specificity, or placement sensitivity in a listening room.
Dynamics
95/100
Best of High End specifically credits the four 10-inch woofers with unprecedented dynamic power and effortless low-octave performance. The available evidence indicates effortless large-scale authority, particularly with demanding material.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Quality
92/100
The review describes a 140 kg monolithic cabinet mounted on a 25 kg stand milled from a single block of aluminium. It also notes the use of premium materials in the internal wiring and crossover components, indicating unusually substantial construction.
Value for Money
85/100
At roughly $29,000 to $45,000 per pair depending on market and finish, the Concentro M.2 occupies an elite high-end segment. The supplied review expresses admiration for the speaker but does not directly compare its price or value with competing premium floorstanders.

Crystal Membrane Driver
Engineered for Low Distortion
Based on ELAC’s Aluminum-Sandwich AS Technology. Resembling the surface of a large crystal, the aluminum-foil stamping stiffens the aluminum dome, diminishing resonances and minimizing coloration, while improving power handling and dynamics. The voice coil design of the drivers results in an expanded frequency range, and driver surround allows for longer cone excursions for truly prodigious volume and lowest distortion, a unique engineering achievement for a driver of its size.
JET 6 Tweeter
Lightning-Fast Response and Wide Dynamic Range
Delivering true high-definition sound, ELAC’s JET 6 tweeter enthralls with its lightning-fast response and wide dynamic range, offering minimal distortion, lots of headroom, and a distinctly wider frequency range than conventional dome tweeters. The ELAC JET tweeter is one of the most legendary tweeters in the industry and has won international praise for its transparent and effortless sound image.
